Pakistan: Plea In Lahore HC Against Recent Hike In Petrol Prices

The Lahore High Court has recently moved against the recent hike in petrol prices in Pakistan.

The head of the judicial activism panel Chief Azhar Siddique filed the petition in the Lahore High Court against the petrol hike.

The petition stated that the oil prices have dropped in the international market but the prices hiked in Pakistan.

Previously, on Friday the government made a massive hike in petrol and diesel prices after making tall claims of providing relief to the masses.

A massive hike of Rs 26.2 per litre was made on petrol and the new price would be Rs 331.38 per litre. Furthermore, Rs 17.34 was jacked up on diesel and the new price would be Rs 329.18 per litre.

Within a month, the caretaker government hiked the petrol price by Rs 58 per litre and diesel by Rs 56 per litre.
